An "issue" that strangely coincides with the end of the moratorium on personal housing.

To me, it looks like they had no good metrics and decided to play it safe. If they didn't want people to "own an absurd amount" of FC houses, they would have done something about it a long time ago since players have been doing it since 2.1

Personal housing is an entire different thing. There are over 700,000 players that are active enough and qualify to purchase a house, compared to slightly over 100,000 FCs. It's quite obvious that personal housing is the problem when there's slightly more than 350,000 plots and it is most likely why the temporary restriction is only effective for personal housing. Not to mention that personal housing is inherently inferior to FC housing and that FC housing isn't as easily obtainable as spending 20$ to get a boosted character. Oh by the way, Square Enix encourages players to use more than 1 service account because they allow you to stack them on the same SE account.

In your own words,
